Aston Martin DBX707

Only 40 cars in the 600-car catalogue combine a V8 with turbocharging, and the Aston Martin DBX707 sits in that narrow group with a further distinction: it pairs that configuration with AWD in a 4/5 seater SUV format. The comparison that matters here is not simply against other fast cars, but against the small number of machines in the collection that attempt to blend serious performance with everyday utility. The DBX707’s position becomes clear through the numbers: its 697 bhp places it 105th overall for power, inside the top 18% of the entire catalogue.

That power figure is matched by a 3,982 cc, 4.0 litre turbocharged V8 producing 900 Nm of torque, giving the DBX707 a 0-100 km/h time of 3.3 seconds. It is faster to 100 km/h than 446 of the 600 cars available, a measure that shows where this SUV sits when judged against the full range rather than only its own category. Its 311 km/h top speed ranks 219th, reinforcing that this is not simply a high-performance utility vehicle, but one designed around numbers that remain competitive well beyond the SUV section.

The DBX707’s place in a collection is also shaped by its combination of traits. Only 74 of the 600 cars use both a V8 and AWD, while just 40 bring together a turbocharged V8. That pairing creates the car’s defining character within the catalogue. It occupies a specific corner where the expectations of an SUV meet the mechanical layout more commonly associated with performance-focused cars.

At a used price of £165,000, it ranks 217th for cost, placing it above 383 cars in the catalogue. Its cost per bhp is £237, giving context to the relationship between its price and output. The DBX707 is also part of a manufacturer presence that includes 28 Aston Martin cars in the collection, connecting it to a wider representation of the UK marque within the platform.

For a collector, the DBX707 suits the person who wants a garage built around breadth without separating practicality from performance. It adds a turbocharged V8 AWD SUV with 697 bhp to a collection, occupying a role that few other cars can fill in quite the same combination. It is the choice for someone who wants one vehicle to stand between two worlds, carrying the shape and purpose of an SUV while sitting among the catalogue’s quicker and more powerful machines.
